Project Management

To be mentioned:

Workflow

For this project we implemented a scrum methodology. The team would get together where we decide our sprints, the duration of the sprint and what we want to achieve by that time frame. Our sprints usually are quite fast, usually a week where we want a number of features to be added to deployment. Where smaller implementations towards that goal happen every one or two days. Daily scrums are held at 2pm everyday unless specified otherwise from members being unable to meet. During these daily scrums pull requests, issues, clarifications and other features are discussed to enable a clean set of working code and issues for development until the next daily scrum. At the end of a sprint, code is then reviewed, refactored and explained to test. Once satisfied, a deployment version of the software is then released.

Meeting minutes

Meetings are held everyday at 2pm on Zoom or Discord, discussions inbetween these meetings are facilitated through Slack for help or clarification. Details of meeting minutes are at the appendices.
